Proposing a fresh approach to scholarship on the topic, this volume explores the cultural meanings, especially the gendered meanings, of material associated with oral traditions. The collection is divided into three sections. Part One investigates the evocations of the 'old nurse' as storyteller so prominent in early modern fictions. The essays in Part Two investigate women's fashioning of oral traditions to serve their own purposes. The third section disturbs the exclusive associations between the feminine and oral traditions to discover implications for masculinity, as well. Contributors explore the plays of Shakespeare and writings of Spenser, Sidney, Wroth and the Cavendishes, as well as works by less well known or even unknown authors. Framed by an introduction by Mary Ellen Lamb and an afterword by Pamela Allen Brown, these essays make several important interventions in scholarship in the field. They demonstrate the continuing cultural importance of an oral tradition of tales and ballads, even if sometimes circulated in manuscript and printed forms. Rather than in its mode of transmission, contributors posit that the continuing significance of this oral tradition lies instead in the mode of consumption (the immediacy of the interaction of the participants). Oral Traditions and Gender in Early Modern Literary Texts confirms the power of oral traditions to shape and also to unsettle concepts of the masculine as well as of the feminine. This collection usefully complicates any easy assumptions about associations of oral traditions with gender.

Mary Ellen is the life story of author Mary Baird Mayer's mother and granddaughter of Isabelle Dahl Anderson Sletten, who immigrated from Sweden in the mid-1800's to build a strong family on the prairie of Dakota Territory. Delivered by Isabelle following a 1918 summer rainstorm after which no doctor could travel the muddy roads, Mary Ellen is initiated into prairie life from her first breath and, through love and hardship, blossoms in her grandmother's lineage as heroine of the author's second ancestral novel.Writing with impeccable detail, Mayer-Mary Ellen's namesake-gives voice to historical times where records only exist piecemeal, if at all, in tattered photographs, newspaper clippings, Bibles and letters handed down, and other miscellaneous treasures uploaded to ancestry websites. In contrast, Mary Ellen captures the feeling of early 1900s America, such that we sense ourselves standing on the farmland, reckoning with the elements, and seeing life through the hearts, minds, and American Dreams of those who came before us. Their similar romantic hopes, love of family, and determination to survive blaze the trail to deep gratitude, not only for modern conveniences but also for the exquisite gift of legacy that makes us who we are today.
The perfect primer on American photographer Mary Ellen Mark, best known for her photojournalism, documentary photography, portraiture and advertising photography. The work of Mary Ellen Mark (1940–2015) bears witness to her fascination with the human condition and her gift for connecting intimately with her subjects. Skilled at blending into unusual or insular environments, she travelled all over the world and forged a body of work that combined photojournalism with portraiture. From Indian circus performers to American teenagers living on the streets, from Hollywood film sets to inmates in a secure hospital, her photographs are striking for their humanity and empathy.
